The first monograph on this pioneering artist-curator who moved between sound, performance, installation and event art and ran the legendary Apollohuis throughout the 1980s and '90s, home to an amazing variety of sound art, experimental music and performances. Best known for his long-string instruments, Panhuysen, as this lavishly illustrated book shows, was busy with paintings and large-scale installations of some variety. 7 essay texts (by Panhuysen, Jaap Bremer, Yvan Etienne, Michel Giroud, Rahma Khazam, Paul Kuypers, Helga de la Motte-Haber, Rene van Peer, Rolf Sachsse & Louis Ucciani) cover the various aspects of his work, with copious photographs, illustrations and documents in colour. There is also a full chronology of exhibitions, installations, performances and concerts. Bilingual (English &French) this is a large soft-cover 320 page book (22,5 x 24,5 cm) which comes also with a CD 'Small Samples with Many Pieces' containing extracts from works composed, improvised, acoustic, amplified and electronic that employ and explore sounds made by musicians, animals and objects.
